I am deeply saddened and concerned about the recent attempt on former President Trump’s life during a campaign rally.

This event demonstrates how Law Enforcement, Federal, State and Local, will always have difficulty in protecting any of us from the lone crazy shooter. Unfortunately, there were some injuries to the President and his supporters and sadly one casualty before the shooter could be neutralized. Further loss was avoided by the rapid response of the counter sniper teams.

Personally, I believe in supporting each other, especially in times of crisis. Now is the time for us to stand united as a country and reflect on the importance of civility. I hope everyone can find a way to come together and show care and respect for one another, regardless of political differences.

To keep our nation strong and united, we must stay true to our values. This nation has always survived by coming together during trying times.

My thoughts are with Trump and his family and the families of attendees that were wounded or killed in this senseless act.

Regards,

Sam
